The Reasons Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are Important

You’ve found one that looks like it meets all the criteria. A real estate agent believes it is solidly constructed and your DIY expert acquaintance says it’s nice. Are you required to have it examined?

If you are buying a house without doing a pre purchase inspection and you find yourself with some costly problems that could have been identified, you may be severely limiting your options for claiming damages in the event that the house has a significant issue.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by a certified Camberley building inspector will identify any problems the property is suffering from, and will also highlight any potential issues and highlight areas to add value. This ensures home buyers do not face any nasty surprises and also gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We inspect the entire building and look for any serious flaws as well as any future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems that are caused by the gradual degradation. We search for structural issues or any indication that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten because of peeling paint, and areas that are damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
